Marmaduke, stay!

I'm in the process of switching my Mastodon account over to Fosstodon.org. LinuxRocks.online has treated me well these past years. But it's become clear that an instance with a firm and clear code of conduct prohibiting hate speech is a better place for me. 💚

Honestly, it's a bummer.

The end of an era. YouTube has announced a crackdown on third-party apps that block ads on videos. https://support.google.com/youtube/thread/269521462?hl=en

Inkscape Developer Reacts to Affinity being Aquired

PeerTube

🧵 [2/3]

My favorite Affinity alternatives are:

Photoscape X, a surprisingly versatile image editor and viewer. I use it a lot. It's free, and you can support the developer with a useful in-app "Pro" purchase:

@GIMP is getting better and better as time progresses, and will remain free and open source:

@inkscape is a great open source alternative to Affinity Designer:

Best Photoshop Alternative.

#Affinity users, you might want to check out free open source art & design tools which cannot be bought out:

(All of these are FOSS)

➡️ @inkscape - Vector drawing software

➡️ @Krita (main) & @[email protected] (videos) & @krita_artists (community) - Painting, drawing & illustration software

Wow. There’s not a single post that likes the news. NOT A SINGLE ONE!

“Great for you.” is the least negative tone I found.
With a period at the end, not an exclamation mark.

#Canva bought #Affinity (the company behind the apps Photo and Designer, similar to #Adobe 's #Photoshop and #Illustrator but with onetime payment and not subscription based). For the time being, there will be no changes in Affinity's team and they will keep developing the present branch of their software (V2). They think this acquisition will bring more frequent updates and a possible integration of professional design tools in Canva.
